The space signal
Property listings describe homes by bedroom count, but that is not recorded in any public dataset. What is recorded is the number of habitable rooms — bedrooms and reception rooms together — and the total floor area. In Bishop Auckland, Binchester, homes with the same number of habitable rooms vary enormously in size.
| Habitable rooms | Smaller (10th) | Typical | Larger (90th) | Sales |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 41 m² | 41 m² | 61 m² | 5 |
| 2 | 38 m² | 52 m² | 66 m² | 58 |
| 3 | 57 m² | 72 m² | 90 m² | 976 |
| 4 | 65 m² | 82 m² | 105 m² | 1,666 |
| 5 | 75 m² | 94 m² | 125 m² | 977 |
| 6 | 93 m² | 113 m² | 146 m² | 588 |
| 7 | 104 m² | 130 m² | 193 m² | 365 |
| 8 | 124 m² | 153 m² | 236 m² | 179 |
| 9 | 130 m² | 211 m² | 307 m² | 32 |
| 10 | 164 m² | 237 m² | 264 m² | 26 |
| 11 | 340 m² | 366 m² | 389 m² | 8 |
| 12 | 308 m² | 371 m² | 423 m² | 8 |
The widest spread here is among homes with 9 habitable rooms, ranging from 130 to 307 m². Two properties advertised the same way can differ by more than half their floor area, which is why price per square metre is a more useful comparison than price alone.
